About The Company
Founded in 2002 by brothers Mark and Michael Klebeck, Top Pot Doughnuts and Coffee began as a single café in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood, inspired by a classic doughnut recipe and a love for great coffee. The brand’s name and identity stem from a restored vintage neon sign, setting the tone for its signature retro aesthetic and commitment to craftsmanship and authenticity. Over the years, Top Pot has grown into a beloved Pacific Northwest brand, expanding to more than a dozen retail locations while also forging a significant wholesale presence. Known for its hand-forged doughnuts and house-roasted coffee, Top Pot combines quality, tradition, and design to create a distinctive experience. Customer sentiment reflects this heritage: fans praise the freshness and flavor of its classic offerings, the nostalgic café vibe, and its positive role in the community. The brand consistently ranks among the best doughnut chains in America, earning loyalty through its craftsmanship and community presence. Today, Top Pot stands as more than simply a producer of doughnuts and coffee - it’s a trusted brand with strong regional equity, ideal for partnerships that value authenticity, quality, and a proven track record of customer appeal.
